Will the Tokyo Olympics go ahead in 2021?

  I have read an ariticle in Independet by Alex Pattle called "Will the Tokyo Olympics go ahead in 2021?". It left about 200 days until the the scheduled start date of the 2020 Olympics, but the decision  whether or not to take place hasn't been made yet. They are to be held in Tokyo, but few days ago the Japanese Prime Minister implemented state of emergency there, owing to an alarming spread of Covid-19 cases. The delay will cost almost 3 billion dollars.

In my opinion The Tokyo Olympics should take place but without the audience. And so in most countries training and matches are held. The Olympic wouldn't be much different from currently playing matches. I know that the cost of lack of audience will be big but not as big as it would be when the whole entertainment will be delay.

    Wouldn't it be better to delay the Olympics and have them next year, with audiences and the other usual features? What fun is it to compete in front of no one?

The largest airport in the world

  First we need to estabilish our criteria.  The largest airport in the world in terms of international passenger traffic is Dubai International Airport.  It is the seat of one of the world's most luxurious airlines - Emirates. Dedicated for use by this Airline, Terminal 3 increased Dubai International’s total capacity by 43 million passengers per year. The airport is not small in terms of the area either; it spreads over an area of 2,900 hectares. In total, it has 3 terminals, however Terminal 3 in Dubai International airport is the second-largest building in the world by floor space and the largest airport terminal in the world. With 88 million passengers, 2.65 million tons of cargo, and 409,493 aircraft movements in 2017, it is the world's busiest airport by international passenger traffic and has been so for four consecutive years. Dubai International airport is also the sixth-busiest cargo airport in the world. https://www.oxfordsaudia.com/en/blog/largest-airport-world/ ht

‘CONCORDE PRICING’ AS BRITISH AIRWAYS STRUGGLES TO MAINTAIN HEATHROW FLIGHT SCHEDULES

  I’ve read an article in Independent called “‘CONCORDE PRICING’ AS BRITISH AIRWAYS STRUGGLES TO MAINTAIN HEATHROW FLIGHT SCHEDULES” by Simon Calder. It was about how the airline British Airways increased the prices of flights until the Easter Monday and canceled some of them. Probably it’s not because of some financial crisis but because of no ability to carry out the flights. The high prices aims at reducing buying tickets and potential numer of passengers affected by cancellations. The prices are higher than prices for Concord flights on the route:London-New York (Concord was the fastest, long distance airplane, but since 2003 it has not flown). In my opinion British Airways shouldn’t working like that. If they are not able to realize the flight, they should canceled it. It will be easier for everyone, because they haven’t to change their flights. They will buy ticket from other airline.  https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/british-airways-flight-cancelled-concorde-

How many people must work at the airport for air traffic to run smoothly?

 Around 1.7 million people work at airports worldwide.  The income generated in this way amounts to less than EUR 70 billion a year.  The largest number of jobs directly at airports is in Germany (220.5 thousand), Great Britain (199.2 thousand), France (168.8 thousand) and Turkey (168.6 thousand).  23.1 thousand people work at Polish airports.  people.  But how many people do you need to operate the largest airport that I described two posts earlier?  It employs about 90,000 people.  This is more than all Polish airports and there are as many as 62 of them. This shows the size and capacity of these airports. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubai_International_Airport https://eu.usatoday.com/story/travel/flights/2016/03/30/airport-workers-employees/82385558/ https://www.pasazer.com/mobi/news/25267/ponad,12,mln,miejsc,pracy,na,lotniskach,w,europie.html
